[AccessD] are PowerApps destined to fly?

I have a Microsoft phone (950 XL) - and it's quite nice!  From all the comments I've read a MS/Nokia phone has a better interface and higher reliability than other phones.

But two things are spelling doom:
	1) MS was way behind in market share by the time the good Nokia phones were available.
	2) There are certain apps that many people really want on a phone.  But they're not there because people making those apps (individuals and companies) believed that the MS phones would eventually fade away so they took a pass.  MS should have paid those companies and individuals to create a version for the MS phones - I think that things would have been different by now had they done that!

I've never seen anyone with a Windows phone!
